Big Brother

Big Brother is a reality competition television series where a group of strangers live together in a custom-built house under constant surveillance. Isolated from the outside world, contestants (known as Houseguests) compete in challenges, form alliances, and are evicted by their peers or the public until only one remains to win a grand prize. The show explores social dynamics, strategy, and interpersonal relationships under extreme conditions.
